Vinland Saga

[Buffalobiian]

So short, indeed :/

Also, receiving 100 punches is bs. Wonder if he has an actual trick up his sleeve. Canute is a bitch, though.

It's going to be just rolling with the punch instead of standing still like a tree.

[DarthEnderX]

Canute is a bitch, though.

Canute: "Oh fuck! Thorfinn is here? That guy's a psycho! I gotta get outta here!"

[MFauli]

Canute: "Oh fuck! Thorfinn is here? That guy's a psycho! I gotta get outta here!"

Yeah, he just knew Thorfinn is someone who's got both the arguments AND the power to back them up, lol. Cannot risk being confronted by him. Although I assume that's gonna be the season finale or so.

[Buffalobiian]

I see you don't watch the previews.

[DarthEnderX]

I see you don't watch the previews.

I do not watch the huge spoilers for the next episode. No.

Well, they FINALLY explained how he ended up a slave.

[MFauli]

There's so much time inbetween, that moment fell flat on my. I just thought "ah, guess I missed/forgot that scene".

Otherwise, I had hoped Thorfinn would make a better argument. Well, maybe something happens next week.

Or Thorgill decapitates Canute, now that all the attention is on Thorfinn, and all hell breaks loose, lol.

That climax was a nothingburger. And yet...a tasty nothingburger.

[Buffalobiian]

I was happy with this, and if no episodes followed I would have still been okay. But now we get to see Thorfinn go home.

[MFauli]

will there be a 3rd season or is this the end of the manga, too?

There's way more manga to go through.

[DarthEnderX]

We're on, like, volume 14 of 26.

Season 2 - Final episode:

OMG, that no beard-glow up!!1 Now he looks like a true rival to Canute, with the same scar, and about to become king of Vinland

The welcome wasn't as emotional as I would have liked it to be, but it made sense that nobody knows who that grown asss man is, considering Thorfinn went missing at age 6.

Now the wait for season 3 begins. I hope the pacing gets better and tells more story, but I also definitely want to see how they build the first time in Vinland

[Buffalobiian]

It was a good wind-down episode. I didn't care much for the sister. His mother recognising him from "fake Thorfinn" played out similarly to what I had expected in my head (I thought they'd plan the gag first instead of it being spontaneous).

I wonder if the only reason that Thors himself didn't go to Vinland was because he was travelling with a baby already.

[DarthEnderX]

I also definitely want to see how they build the first time in Vinland

That's probably a long ways off. It sounds like the next arc is "raising money". Then there's got to be a whole boat arc. And that's assuming nobody actually tries to get in their way.

I wonder if the only reason that Thors himself didn't go to Vinland was because he was travelling with a baby already.

Isn't Leif, like, the only person that's been to Vinland and back?

[MFauli]

To me it sounded like Leif has the money already?

[Buffalobiian]

Isn't Leif, like, the only person that's been to Vinland and back?

Maybe? Wouldn't have stopped Thors going if he wanted to avoid people, but I guess he's also counting on everyone thinking he's dead.
